Coverage and hole-detection in sensor networks via homology
We consider coverage problems in sensor networks of stationary nodes with minimal geometric data. In particular, there are no coordinates and no localization of nodes. We introduc...

Coordinate-free Coverage in Sensor Networks with Controlled Boundaries via Homology
ABSTRACT. We introduce tools from computational homology to verify coverage in an idealized sensor network. Our methods are unique in that, while they are coordinate-free and assum...

Towards simplicial coverage repair for mobile robot teams
— In this note, we present initial results towards developing a distributed algorithm for repairing topological holes in the sensor cover of a mobile robot team. Central to our a...

Distributed coverage verification in sensor networks without location information
In this paper, we present a series of distributed algorithms for coverage verification in sensor networks with no location information. We demonstrate how, in the absence of locali...
